Answer

Concept Digest
Alternatively, music can be assessed on the three
dimensions of "arousal", "valence", and "depth". Arousal
reflects physiological processes such as stimulation and
relaxation (intense, forceful, abrasive, thrilling vs.
gentle, calming, mellow), valence reflects emotion and mood
processes (fun, happy, lively, enthusiastic, joyful vs.
depressing, sad), and depth reflects cognitive processes
(intelligent, sophisticated, inspiring, complex, poetic,
deep, emotional, thoughtful vs. party music, danceable).

These help explain why many people like similar songs from
different traditionally segregated genres.

Art Music
The identity of a "work" or "piece" of art music is
usually defined by the notated version rather than by a
particular performance and is primarily associated with the
composer rather than the performer (though composers may
leave performers with some opportunity for interpretation or
improvisation). This is so particularly in the case of
western classical music. Art music may include certain forms
of jazz, though some feel that jazz is primarily a form of
popular music. The 1960s saw a wave of avant-garde
experimentation in free jazz, represented by artists such as
Ornette Coleman, Sun Ra, Albert Ayler, Archie Shepp and Don
Cherry. And avant-garde rock artists such as Frank Zappa,
Captain Beefheart, and The Residents released art music
albums.

Popular Music
Popular music is found on most commercial and public
service radio stations, in most commercial music retailers
and department stores, and movie and television soundtracks.
It is noted on the Billboard charts and, in addition to
singer-songwriters and composers, it involves music
producers more than other genres do.
The distinction between classical and popular music has
sometimes been blurred in marginal areas[13] such as
minimalist music and light classics. Background music for
films/movies often draws on both traditions. In this
respect, music is like fiction, which likewise draws a
distinction between literary fiction and popular fiction
that is not always precise.
Rock Music
Rock music is a broad genre of popular music that
originated as "rock and roll" in the United States in the
early 1950s, and developed into a range of different styles
in the 1960s and later, particularly in the United Kingdom
and in the United States.

Electronic Music
Electronic music is music that employs electronic
musical instruments, digital instruments or circuitry-based
music technology. A distinction can be made between sound
produced using electromechanical means (electroacoustic
music) and that produced using electronics only.
Stylistic origins: Modernism; Futurism
Cultural origins: Late 19th and early 20th century
Derivative forms: Ambient; dub; hip hop; etc.

Soul Music/ R&B

Soul music became a musical genre that came to include
a wide variety of R&B-based music styles from the pop R&B
acts at Motown Records in Detroit, such as The Temptations,
Marvin Gaye and Four Tops, to "deep soul" singers such as
Percy Sledge and James Car.
Regae Music
Reggae music, originating from the late 1960s Jamaica,
is a genre of music that was originally used by Jamaicans to
define themselves with their lifestyle and social aspects.
The meaning behind reggae songs tend to be about love, faith
or a higher power, and freedom. Reggae music is important to
Jamaican culture as it has been used as inspiration for many
third world liberation movements. Bob Marley, an artist
primarily known for reggae music, was honored by Zimbabwe's
1980 Independence celebration due to his music giving
inspirations to freedom fighters. The music genre of reggae
is known to incorporate different stylistic techniques form
rhythm and blues, jazz, African, Caribbean, and other genres
as well but what makes reggae unique are the vocals and
lyrics. The vocals tend to be sung in Jamaican Patois,
Jamaican English, and Iyaric dialects. The lyrics of reggae
music usually tend to raise political awareness and on
cultural perspective.
Hiphop Music
Hip Hop music, also referred to as hip hop or rap
music, is a genre of music that was started in the United
States, specifically the South Bronx in the New York City by

African-American youth from the inner cities during the

1970s. It can be broadly defined as a stylized rhythmic

rhyming speech that is chanted. Hip hop music derives from
the hip hop culture itself, including four key elements:
emceeing (MCing)/rapping, Disc jockeying (DJing) with
turntablism, breakdancing and graffiti art.

dance music familiar throughout Europe and the Americas.

or composed for religious use or through religious
influence. Gospel, spiritual, and Christian music are
examples of religious music.

Title: Kodaly Method
Topics: Kodaly hand signs
Learning Outcomes:
1. Discussed the Kodaly Signs
2. Ability to Apply the Kodaly Signs

Introduction

The Kodaly Method is a teaching strategy in music which

was introduced by a Hungarian composer, Zoltan Kodaly. This
method was adopted by music teachers from Grades one to six.
Its foundation is based on the rhythm and theuse of a
pentatonic or five-tone scale.
The Kodaly Method has the following components:
a. System of rhythm duration symbols such as using
syllables “ta” for quarter
note, “ti” for the eighth note, and “ti-di” for the
sixteenth note, to indicate one-beat and half-beat tones.
b. Kodaly Scale - A scale using hand signs or gestures
which indicate the notes of the scale, from lower do to
higher do or vice versa. Each hand position signifies
specific characteristics and mood – acting or moving and
passive or resting. (Please see the illustrations of Kodaly
hand signs.)
